OGDEN — For years Utah has been an innovation hub with a booming economy, prompting thousands to settle in the Beehive State. As Gov. Spencer Cox puts it, "the secret is out."
While it's great so many people want to live in the state, Cox said every great thing comes with a downside: Utahns have been priced out of their home state.
But for some Ogden workers, through a unique partnership between a San Francisco and Denver-based residential brokerage firm with Ogden City and Ogden School District, a solution is on the horizon. The city and school district teamed up with Landed to help local government employees and educators living in Ogden afford homes, officials announced Monday morning. The partnership is the first of its kind with the company in Utah.
